Selfridges usually have a good selection. Or try any department store near you. If you're anything like me you'll need to try on a million pairs before you find some that look right.
If you just want some dossing ones then go to next.

I kind of agree, but there are lots of decent sunglasses other than aviators. I do think folk looks like gimps in oakleys with coloured / mirrored lenses, you know the wrap around style ones usually worn by middle aged men who like to detail their cars while wearing their bluetooth headset.

the looky looky men sell them on the beach.
just look for the only big black guy on the beach that is wearing a leather jacket in 40 degree heat and he will sort you out with a pair of jay bans.

I half disagree, I have a limited edition set on Oakleys from about 6 years ago, not wrap around, just very sharp styled and probably not to a lot of peoples taste, however suit my face shape. However I do think people who wear the wrap around sets ussually look like a twat or like they are dirty knock offs from abdul that sells them down the market.

Those colourful reflective wrap around types just look dated to me, something I would have worn in the 90s

I teach sailing/Windsurfing; I burnt my retinas and suffered reflective blindness; that was the single scariest thing I've enfured, it cleared up after 2/3 days but I was pretty much blind; constantly felt like I was in a cloud.
Best lenses bar none; Not suffered since. They've taken abuse too and still lasted 13 years!!
Those are the same as mine

Aviators are the ultra-twat sunglasses

I will let you away with it, just this once. Since you have a valid excuse!
